"Captain, there are Quincy here too!"
"Captain, we've found Quincy on our side as well!"
"Captain, the enemy is too strong! Requesting backup!"
Inside the Seireitei streets, Soul Reapers from the Gotei 13, 10th Division were constantly engaging the Quincy who had invaded the Seireitei. Ōtokawa Uki, the captain of the 10th Division, listened to the shouts of his squad members, his eyelid twitching uncontrollably. He suddenly felt like his head was about to explode. In fact, among the squad members he was leading, there were also members from other divisions...
The reason for this current situation was simple...
It was all because the 'bloodthirsty' captains of the Gotei 13 were too busy having fun, completely disregarding the lives of their squad members! They simply abandoned their own divisions! Grabbing their Zanpakuto and using Shunpo, they rushed alone towards the Four Gates of the Seireitei, where the most enemies were. So, the task of commanding the slower squad members fell to the 'slowest' captain, Ōtokawa Uki of the 10th Division.
I wish I could go to the Four Gates and kill to my heart's content too!
But no one told me about the Quincy invasion! So annoying...
Ōtokawa Uki silently thought to himself while directing the squad members around him.
Indeed, it wasn't that Ōtokawa Uki was bad at Shunpo, nor was he slow; it was simply that Araki hadn't informed him when he used Tenteikūra. By the time he received the notification, everyone else had already left, leaving him with this mess.
According to Araki, "Who told you to be so handsome? You might just pose a threat to me! You deserve this mess!"
"Assemble at the 1st Division Barracks!"
Just as Ōtokawa Uki was silently wondering if he was being ostracized by the other captains, Chōjirō Sasakibe's voice echoed in his mind. Ōtokawa Uki knew this was Sasakibe using Tenteikūra, and he also knew that Sasakibe represented Captain-Commander Yamamoto! And so...
"Igarashi..."
Ōtokawa Uki looked at his vice-captain.
"Here!"
The man Ōtokawa Uki called Igarashi immediately came to his captain's side upon hearing the call.
"This is yours now!"
Ōtokawa Uki said to Igarashi beside him, then used Shunpo to leave.
"What? Mine?!"
Igarashi looked up in a daze, only to find that Ōtokawa Uki was nowhere in sight!
"I..."
Igarashi accepted it all in a daze. He stared blankly at the chaotic battlefield. How could a mere vice-captain manage such a large battlefield? Was this some kind of joke? At this moment, the humble Igarashi understood how Benbobba must have felt back then.
However, the war continued! In less than an hour, the raging flames of war had swept through the entire Seireitei! The invasion of the Seireitei by the Quincy, led by Yhwach from the Lichtreich, was the greatest crisis the Seireitei had faced in a thousand years! The last time the Seireitei was in such chaos was because of a Menos Grande from Hueco Mundo...
If one were to look down from above the Seireitei at this moment, they would see the entire Seireitei engulfed in roaring flames!
Countless injured Quincy and Soul Reaper squad members were groaning in pain! But the war certainly wouldn't stop just because soldiers were injured; it had to continue...
However, injuries sustained in war also needed to be treated! No matter how fearless Soul Reaper squad members were, they wouldn't sit by and watch their injuries worsen, ultimately leading to their unclear deaths...
Unfortunately, the First Generation Gotei 13 did not establish a division specifically for treating the wounded. The squad members and captains who usually handled medical care were having too much fun fighting on the battlefield themselves, and no one could attend to these injured squad members!
So, at this moment, squad members from various divisions had to find ways to treat themselves. Of course, if these squad members were left to their own devices, by the end of the war, regardless of who won, the Gotei 13 would suffer immense losses, and its manpower would be insufficient for a long time!
But thankfully, Araki had anticipated this and was prepared.
The Gotei 13, 11th Division...
This division, traditionally known for combat, was now filled with beds for the sick. Rough, burly men were busily bandaging and treating the wounded.
Yes, you heard that right! These men of the 11th Division, who once only knew how to wield their swords, had now all become doctors! Of course, they understood neither Kaido nor medical arts...
But they knew how to cut! If there was an infection... cut! If the bleeding wouldn't stop... cut! Then, cauterize it with fire! As long as the bleeding stopped, that's all that mattered!
According to Araki, as long as the person wasn't dead, it didn't matter if they lost an arm or a leg; as long as they survived, he would personally treat them after the war...
So, at this moment, all the wounded in the 11th Division were left missing limbs! And because these squad members from other divisions didn't know that Araki could save them, they lay there cursing the 11th Division squad members: "Damn quacks! Give me back my leg!" and similar words.
Logically, with such brutal medical methods, the entire 11th Division should have been overwhelmed by the other divisions' squad members. But in fact, it wasn't. Instead, everything was incredibly orderly, and everyone was waiting to be cut and treated! This was only because a classical beauty with her hair styled, wearing a 'smile,' sat silently in a chair, watching the crippled figures lying in the hospital beds.
This beauty was Unohana Retsu...
The swords of the 11th Division squad members demanded their organs. The sword in Unohana Retsu's hand demanded their lives!
And...
"Brothers! I swear by the name of the Sugiki Family! My legs were 'snapped' right off by two arrows from those dog-faced Quincy! But it's okay, Captain Araki reattached them with a flick of his wrist! So don't be afraid of being crippled, or afraid of not being able to wield a sword later! As long as you survive, Captain Araki can reattach whatever was crippled!"
This person was Sugiki Sōichirō, the one Araki had saved from the battlefield! He had now become Araki's number one hype man in the Gotei 13.
With Sugiki Sōichirō, a nobleman, swearing by his family's name, these squad members felt much more at ease. However, some, who had only sprained their wrists, but had their entire arms amputated by the idiots in the 11th Division, would still curse: "Damn barbarians, damn quacks!"
On the other side...
Outside the 11th Division Barracks.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes! Positive! This is definitely the Soul Reapers' hospital!"
"Look, so many wounded are being carried inside!"
"True..."
"Last question for you all: are you certain there aren't any 'captain-level' Soul Reapers in this hospital?"
"Of course not! How could we possibly miss the bizarre appearance of those 'Captain'-level Soul Reapers?"
Several Quincy, clad in white knight uniforms, gathered there. As they gazed at the 1st Division Barracks, where injured individuals were constantly being brought in and out, a cruel glint appeared in their eyes.
"Excellent!"
"Then, eliminate this place…"
"No! To be precise, massacre this place! Make them feel the pain of us Quincy!"
At the command of the leading Quincy, everyone immediately moved.
Like white phantoms, they directly infiltrated the 11th Division Barracks.
"Who are you?!"
The 11th Division members, caught off guard, didn't have time to draw their Zanpakuto. However, no one was truly worried, as their Captain, Lady Unohana, was still sitting nearby.
"You ask who I am?! What a foolish question!"
The leading Quincy, surrounded by other Quincy, walked into the 11th Division Barracks with a smile. He looked at the Soul Reaper soldiers lying on the hospital beds, their injured parts amputated, and a look of disdain appeared in his eyes.
"What primitive medical technology!"
This Quincy, a member of the Sternritter, couldn't help but mock.
"Oh my, it seems you are the enemies, then?"
Unohana Retsu, who had been sitting in her chair feeling as if her body was turning to iron, looked at her self-delivered prey. With a smile, she picked up the Zanpakuto by her side.
"Heh heh!"
The Sternritter member, seeing the Haori on Unohana Retsu, was momentarily stunned.
Then, upon seeing Unohana Retsu's 'beautiful face,' 'graceful figure,' and 'fair skin,' he immediately showed a look of contempt. This woman is so good-looking, she can't be that tough to beat!
He had seen Captains of the Gotei 13 before; they all looked 'inhuman.' This beautiful lady in front of me definitely isn't a Gotei 13 Captain!
"That's right, I am your enemy!"
"Since I've found you, your death is inevitable…"
At once, this Sternritter member was full of confidence. He looked at Unohana Retsu proudly, openly admitting his identity.
Whoosh!
Before the Sternritter member could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a chill around his neck. Then, he felt his entire body fly into the air, 'spinning' and 'leaping,' before he saw a headless corpse continuously gushing blood…
How strange! This body looks familiar!
Wait, isn't this my body?!
As the head thought this, it fell to the ground with a 'thud.'
